The "don't panic" is moot. People are dying. Its not time to panic, but the time for comprehensive, serious, and extremely enforceable plans was 5 years ago. Now there will be massive problems, its unavoidable.
Oh yeah in so many ways its a too little too late. The best time to have fixed this problem was 40 years ago, the second best time is now. Nothing will be perfect, and we are definitely going to get so many things wrong. All I am saying is that there is some hope for something better, just gotta keep focusing on that and try hard to not fall down the rabbit hole of existential dread.
